Monica Monet

 

On The Road T

Soul is not something we acquire. Soul is embedded into our very beings based on our surroundings and our experiences.  And when that soul searches for release, it emerges in the essence of Monica Monet.  Born in Philadelphia, Mississippi, a town infamous for its role in the Civil Rights movement, the soulful sounds of Monica Monet were influenced by such phenomenon that embodies life, love, heartache and rebirth. 

 

 

 

 

Ms Monet first resonated Soul at the tender age of ten,

when she performed at the historical Mt. Zion Baptist Church in her home town. 

She went on to independently pen and produce her first album, So Sweet,

in 1995. 

The album, which showcased Monica Monet’s sultry vocals, sold more than

500 copies in its first week.

 

 

 

Moving to Atlanta in 1997, Monica signed a recording contract with Beyond Entertainment. Under nned

Monica Monet is a Jacksonville-based soul singer and spoken word artist. She performs the first Saturday of each month at Poppy Love Smoke, 112 E. Adams St.

5 local artists' albums people should hear (but likely haven't)

1. "Nappy Halo, Vol. 1," Monica Monet (that's me!): A fresh blend of neo-soul, hip-hop and spoken word. This album will melt away stress and put a smile on your face, so you won't even remember the hard day at work or school! It's an easy listen from beginning to end.

2. "Talk About It," Mr. Al Pete: You know, as women, we always wanna know guys' views about relationships. This hip-hop album takes you on a life journey of love, life and wanting something more - with just one woman! I love this album and the laid-back beats. It will have you pouring a glass of wine and taking notes.

3. "Rhythm and Poetry," The IGive: When you speak from the heart, how can you go wrong? The IGive talks about saving a community and bringing families back together. It's a lot of work saving the world one album at a time! You can't go wrong with this one.

4. "Jeramy Bailey," Jeramy Bailey: Bailey takes you on an experimental ride, with soft vocals that sound like Dove chocolate, rich and smooth! The future is looking good for Bailey. I just love his pop sound mixed with R&B, soul and a touch of an experimental mood.

5. "The Art of Plain English," Odd_Rod: It's not every day a spoken word artist is looked at like a superstar. With a shy but big smile, Odd_Rod will tell you his story of making it through a hard childhood and not giving up on life. He knows it's OK to be odd, because he sees the bigger picture: He's got lives to save! This album is a must-have.

The Hole In The Wall

When I saw this video I had to bring it to ya. Lik he says up front....When you go back home I bet you know where there is a "Hole In The Wall"
